Electronic fans, book your tickets to Macau for Deadmau5 on the 22nd, who we introduce a little more to you in our A-Side (P14). Back in Hong Kong, influential Brit band Blur flies into the HKCEC. In our Special Feature (P22) we chat with drummer Dave Rowntree about new album The Magic Whip, which was recorded in our very own streets. Also recorded in Hong Kong is local dream pop band Thud’s new Floret E.P, and over in Macau, alt. trio Turtle Giant gear up to release their second full-length album, Many Mansions I, recorded in a local theatre. Check out our interviews with the bands, who both have strong opinions on the music scene in Asia (P18). Down in the underground scene, Oliver Clasper gets up close and personal with IDM innovator Lee Gamble in On the Decks (P26) after an exquisite set at The Empty Gallery. As always, flip over to Mixer (P48) for our new music recommendations. This month in On the Rocks (P44) we descend the Shin Hing Steps into brand new ‘80s themed hangout spot NEO, and in Boom’s Kitchen (P42) we explore Hong Kong’s sweet tooth - the everlasting love for Japanese desserts. In Play Away (P28), we’ve put together a detailed weekend itinerary for Tokyo. Plus, festival-goers should check out our Summer Jams fashion shoot (P32) for this year’s essential sunshine wear.

This is a cautionary tale. About greed, irresponsibility and failing to learn from the past. Australia's mining boom is still talked about with a sense of awe. This once-in-a-lifetime event capped off 25 straight years of economic growth. Thanks to mining we sidestepped the worst of the Global Financial Crisis. To the rest of the world Australia was an economic miracle. And then the boom ended. Now Australia is grappling with what that means at a time of rising economic inequality and political upheaval. The end of the boom isn't about money - it's about people. Boom and Bust looks at what happens to those who came into vast wealth only to watch it dry up. To those who thought they had a good job for life, but didn't. The bust didn't just happen on stock-market screens - it was lived, and is still being lived right now, in dusty towns and cities all around the country. As he did in his bestselling book The Death of Holden, Royce Kurmelovs reveals the reality behind the headlines. Boom and Bust is a dirt-under-the-nails look at the winners, the losers and the impact of the boom that wasn't meant to end. This is a book all Australians should read.

In this clear and informed guide to the business model that’s set to dominate twenty-first-century commerce, Adam Levinter makes a compelling case that the phenomenal success of companies like Amazon, Netflix, Spotify, and Salesforce wouldn’t be possible without the foundation they all have in common: subscription. A surge of subscription boxes in 2012 earned buzz for offering everything from razors to meal kits to underwear; since then the model has proven to be adaptable, profitable, and resilient, even as many traditional retailers struggle to stay relevant in the digital economy. Levinter takes a close look at the leaders of the subscription economy to pinpoint the essential elements of the model, and prove that while the basic concept may be as old as magazines, the ubiquity of the internet is enabling a new way for businesses to scale and succeed. The Subscription Boom shows that the appeal to both customers and businesses makes subscription a smart play for virtually any business.

The history of men's needlework has long been considered a taboo subject. This is the first book ever published to document and critically interrogate a range of needlework made by men. It reveals that since medieval times men have threaded their own needles, stitched and knitted, woven lace, handmade clothes, as well as other kinds of textiles, and generally delighted in the pleasures and possibilities offered by all sorts of needlework. Only since the dawn of the modern age, in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries, did needlework become closely aligned with new ideologies of the feminine. Since then men's needlework has been read not just as feminising but as queer. In this groundbreaking study Joseph McBrinn argues that needlework by male artists as well as anonymous tailors, sailors, soldiers, convalescents, paupers, prisoners, hobbyists and a multitude of other men and boys deserves to be looked at again. Drawing on a wealth of examples of men's needlework, as well as visual representations of the male needleworker, in museum collections, from artist's papers and archives, in forgotten magazines and specialist publications, popular novels and children's literature, and even in the history of photography, film and television, he surveys and analyses many of the instances in which “needlemen” have contested, resisted and subverted the constrictive ideals of modern masculinity. This audacious, original, carefully researched and often amusing study, demonstrates the significance of needlework by men in understanding their feelings, agency, identity and history.
